Most random blades player weve had?

[bromtom]

what a fucking player. Came back from the dead and bagged against Bury. Warnock booted his hat trick ball out of his hands. In all seriousness he went from being our player of the season to missing sitters for the next 3 years.

"He's Katchouro'd it" was me and my friends way of saying blasted it/ spooned it over the bar.

Bit harsh but children are cruel.

 

[XM657]

Daft maybe, but I looked up the meaning of random in't dictionary, just so as to chose my player 'in the best possible manner'.
Told me "proceeding, made, or occurring without definite aim, reason, or pattern".
Well to me that sums up the club it's self, neer mind players, at least in my life time.
Recon we call it 'The Blades Way'.

 

[1973Blade]

Phil Thompson. I got the impression he didn't like playing for us.

 

[Bearlie]

David White

 

[Guesty]

David White

My Dad hated him so much (I think part of it was that White's dad was on the board or something, so White had perceived preferential treatment).

Whenever someone completely fails to trap the ball, my Dad will still say "David White School of Ball Control".

 

[Moan? Nope-I saw Longhorn]

Paul Holland

 

[Moan? Nope-I saw Longhorn]

Peter Hetherston
Reckon he hit the woodwork more frequently than he played ?

 

[Moan? Nope-I saw Longhorn]

John Ebbrell, possibly the ultimate "nearly one club man".

200+ appearances for Everton, signed by Kendall in 1997 and made one appearance for the Blades before retiring due to injury.

To be (pedantically) accurate - “half an appearance”

 

[Withington Blade]

Leon Britton, simply because he was 5'6 and a ball player yet we played hoofball

Similar to when we signed Nathan Thomas from Hartlepool when we didn’t play with wingers

 

[knowsnowt]

Richard diddlylegs.
So obscure most people have never even heard of him, let alone seen him play.

 

[Foxy]

Also was Mamadou Seck ever sighted in the flesh? Only ever saw him on Football Manager games

Yep, saw him play

Has anyone mentioned Esrom Nyandoro?

 

[Ainsley Harriott]

Jean-Francois, on the other hand, right on the money!

I really liked him! Never the best we've had but a cracking bloke. And one of the strangest chants I've heard at a game was for him.

'Voulez-vous coucher avec moi, Francois'

 

[S40BLADE]

Some recent ones I'd include: Oli Burke, Callum Robinson, Harry Chapman, Nathan Thomas. #SignWingersEvenThoughWeNeverPlayThemFC

 

[The Crab]

Phil Kite

 

[DifferentClass]

Phil Thompson. I got the impression he didn't like playing for us.

Bit before my time but reading "his" column in the programmes of the era he openly berated the fans and spent more time talking about Liverpool than us.

I seem to recall it was Joe Fagan who fucked him off because his knees had gone.

 

[PandaCola]

Len De Goey

 

[Ainsley Harriott]

Ryan France
Rumour was we signed him just to spite the pigs. I thought that was ridiculous, in hindsight it was possibly true.

Same story goes for Luke Beckett.

 

[paul betts]

Phil Thompson. I got the impression he didn't like playing for us.

The feeling was mutual……

 

[designblade]

Benoit Croissant

 

[paul betts]

I really liked him! Never the best we've had but a cracking bloke. And one of the strangest chants I've heard at a game was for him.

'Voulez-vous coucher avec moi, Francois'

Another with shocking luck with injury

 

[Newbury Blade]

Similar to when we signed Nathan Thomas from Hartlepool when we didn’t play with wingers

Played once, scored a screamer to win us an FA Cup tie, so naturally CW never picked him again.

 

[McGoaldrick]

Fucking foderingham

 

[Millhousesblade1889]

I was just coincidentally reading an article on Hao Haidong. I didn't realise that we signed him at 35. He had a great goal record in China to be fair

 

[Harry's Game]

Bruno Ribeiro

 

[dellasthunderbolt]

Danny Cadamarteri

 

[sufc323]

Andy Butler.

Sold Maguire that pre season so needed a CB, Butler plays all pre season then we start the opening match with Craig Alcock at centre back and Butler is loaned out.

Summed up FLN that.

 

[Classof85]

Met Katchuro at a Junior Blades Xmas bash, he had his translator with him as he didn't speak a word of English despite having been here close to a year!

I met him outside nationwide bank in Chesterfield, Whispered to my mum thats Petr Katchuro he must have heard me(I've never been the most subtle of people) and started talking to us. Genuinely nice guy from what i remember

 

[Nedski]

Erik Tonne, the next big thing. Seemed to do OK, scored a couple of goals, then disappeared!

 

[Guesty]

Erik Tonne, the next big thing. Seemed to do OK, scored a couple of goals, then disappeared!

He looked decent enough when he played but I seem to remember he always looked shattered after 20 minutes.

I also seem to remember that one of the admins on here had something of a crush on him...

 

[HeCanDoMagic]

Sean Dyche
